Oh, so sorry. How do knives get packed for the plane?

Well, most of my knives are small folders, meaning the blade folds into the handle, rather than being a "fixed blade", like a hunting knife. So I have lots of these nifty little cases for holding them. Most of them fit in there snugly:

And then zip up nicely:

I do have a few that do not fit into these small cases. Those I usually just wrap up in a scarf or something similar, and then tote them in a seperate zip-up makeup type case. Those are my balisongs (twirling-type knives - one shown closed and one shown open), my automatics -knives that pop open when you push a button-, (an Italian stiletto and a Boker) and my one fixed blade knife. Next to the fixed blade knife is a Kydex sheath to store it in.
The blades are not black, knives do not photograph well:

Now isn't that so damn exciting?
No, I know it isn't. But y'all asked. lol
